The clog gallery is a large stage where dozens of people can dance at the same time, and there are seats for dozens of people to watch, as well as some couches. If you are tired of watching, you can lean on and watch, or lie down and watch.

The floors are made of paulownia planks that have been compressed. A big red carpet is rolled out on it. Underneath the floor is a large pool. It is full of large urns, and the floor is laid on the mouth of the cylinder, and people usually walk on it silently, but when the girls put on clogs and dance on them, the clogs step on the floor, and the floor will make a rhythmic sound because it is made of paulownia wood, which can be used as a musical instrument. The sound swirls in the urn and filters through the carpet, sounding soft, low, lingering and striking at the heart.

The Lounge also has a lounge, dining room, bedrooms, and meeting rooms for small meetings and formal conversations. There is also a circle of carved railings outside, and the railing overlooks the distance, with a wide field of vision, and you can see the vast mountains and green water.

When the chamberlain brought Fan Li and them here, King Wu was enjoying the singing and dancing performances of the palace maids inside. The first dancer in the history of Shih Tzu. He trained a singing and dancing team, including solo, duet, trio, and group dances. These dances represent the highest level of dance in the world.

And the only one who can do nothing and have fun is King Wu alone.

The chamberlain came in and reported: "King, Lord Fan Li is back and is asking to see him outside. ”

King Wu was clapping his hands and cheering, as if he didn't hear what the chamberlain said: "Who did you say came back?" ”

The chamberlain deserves to report again: "Lord Fan Li is back, and he is asking to see Dazai-sama outside." ”

King Wu heard it clearly this time: "It's the young uncle who came back and told them to wait in the conference room, and the widow will go over immediately." ”

Fan Li, the waiter, sat down in the small conference room, and after waiting for most of the hour, King Wu walked in happily.

Fan Li and the three of them stood up and saluted: "See the king." ”

King Wu waved his hand and said happily: "The young uncle is back, and Zimei has worked hard all the way." Do you want to accompany the widow to watch the song and dance, and let's talk again? ”

Fan Li said: "King, Fan Li thinks it's better to report the situation first. ”

King Wu said, "That's fine. What good news did the young uncle bring back to the widow when he went on this mission? ”

Fan Li said: "Back to the king, Fan Li is incompetent, and this time he has brought bad news to the king." Asking the king to govern the sin of his ministers for incompetence. ”

King Wu said: "Whether it is good news or bad news, the young uncle is hard, there is no merit, and there is hard work. ”

Fan Li said, "Thank you, King." ”

King Wu said, "Okay, sit down and talk." Let's talk about the situation. ”

Fan Li said: "The mission of the minister's envoy to Lu this time is to persuade Lu to not start a war. Settle disputes with the country by peaceful means. Because before, the State of Yi sent troops to break through Qicheng, wiped out the 3,000 Lu army, and killed the defender Yu Fu. ”

King Wu said, "Yes, it is like this. You continue. ”

Fan Li said: "When the minister and Zimei arrived, Lu Guo had already mobilized men and horses and was ready to attack Yi Guo. The minister immediately lobbied and met Ji Sunsi, the secretary of the Lu State, and later met Lu Hou directly. First of all, Lu Hou had loosened his mouth and stopped using force, who knew that he would come overnight, and he changed his hexagram again, and he insisted on sending troops to attack the country of Yi. The minister felt that there must be something hidden here. So I secretly investigated. ”

King Wu said: "What is the hidden truth of the investigation? ”

Fan Li said: "It turns out that the situation of the Lu State is like this, the Shangqing Ji Sunsi is in power and the opposition, and Lu Hou also wants to listen to him for three points, and it is Ji Sunsi who strongly advocates the crusade against the State of Lu. And why did Ji Suns send troops desperately to attack the country of Di? It turned out that the Qicheng guard general who was killed by Yi Guo was Ji Sunsi's brother-in-law. That is, the younger brother of Mrs. Kissons. What's more coincidental is that although Ji Sunsi is a high-ranking official, he has a characteristic, that is, he is afraid of guilt, it turns out that he is afraid of his wife. When the minister saw Ji Sunsi, he still had blood marks on his neck that had been scratched by his wife. In this way, a woman provoked a war. ”

King Wu said: "So, is there a fight? ”

Fan Li said: "The minister is incompetent and has failed to complete his mission to stop this war. Lu sent an army of 50,000 to break through the capital of the state of Yi overnight, captured the monarch of the country, and imprisoned him in the place of negative defects. ”

He said, "The king, the minister thinks that this matter is providential. Why did Yi Guo kill Ji Sunsi's brother-in-law? And why is Ji Sunsi afraid of his wife? No one can adjust this kind of battle. It's not that the young man is ineffective, and no one can stop this war. ”

King Wu sighed and said, "According to this, this contradiction is really irreconcilable, and the widow did not blame you. What else is going on? ”

Fan Li said: "After this battle, the country of Di basically no longer exists. Even the monarch was arrested. We know that Di Ziyi is the brother-in-law of the Marquis of Qi, and the Duke of Mourning loves his sister the most, and now that the Duke of Qi Ziyi and his wife have been arrested, how can Qi Guo sit idly by? So the minister thought that he could go to Qi to see if he could persuade the Marquis of Qi not to use force, and use diplomatic means to pressure Lu Guo to release Yi Ziyi, make an apology, and pay compensation. Maybe we can end this matter. ”

King Wu said: "It turns out that the young uncle has gone to the country of Qi again. What was the outcome of the discussion? ”

Fan Li said: "The State of Qi also argued very strongly about whether to send troops to attack the State of Lu. The minister first found Xiong Fei, the most trusted courtier of the mourning duke, persuaded Xiong Fei, and then went to see the mourning duke. Originally, the mourning prince had been persuaded by the ministers and decided to use peaceful diplomacy to settle the dispute with the Lu State. At this moment, a very miraculous thing happened. ”

King Wu was stunned for a moment and said, "What happened?" ”

Fan Li said mysteriously: "It's incredible to say. That morning, countless bees suddenly flew in the Qihou Palace, buzzing, flying around, and even more miraculous, the bees fell on the open space outside the main hall, forming a big "win" word.

King Wu's eyes widened: "Is there such a thing?" ”

Fan Li said: "This is what Chen and Zimei witnessed with their own eyes. ”

"Oh my God, it's incredible. ”

King Wu said, "What about later? ”

Fan Li said: "Later, they found the Ming people, burned incense to worship the gods, and calculated a hexagram, and finally came up with five words: It is advisable to go on the expedition, Daji!" ”

King Wu looked at Bo Yao: "Dazai, tell me, what does this thing show?" ”

Bo Yao sighed: "King, this kind of thing, everyone is most willing to believe. The meaning of the oracle is that a battle can be fought and won. ”

King Wu turned to Fan Li: "Then did the Marquis of Qi change his words?" ”

Fan Li said: "I can't change what he just said, and he verbally promised not to use force against Lu and settle it peacefully." Danchen has already seen that he is fooling people, and in fact, he has already decided to send troops to attack the Lu country. ”

Everyone was silent. Since Wu destroyed the Yue Kingdom, peace has lasted for more than ten years, and everyone has become accustomed to peace. Several northern countries inexplicably made a fuss, directly threatening the security of Wu.

King Wu said to Bo Ya, "Dazai, are we going to hold a court meeting to discuss this matter?" ”

Bo Yao said: "The minister thinks that the court meeting should not be held first. Tomorrow, we can summon the prime minister to Gusutai, and a few of us will discuss it first, come up with a bill, and then we will discuss it. ”

King Wu said, "Well, we will discuss it in this place tomorrow." Dazai, please inform Sangkoku. Young uncle, you rest first, and then discuss it tomorrow. ”。

Bo Yao said: "Today, there is an envoy from the Qin State, and the minister is going to receive it. Tomorrow the minister will come on time. ”

After everyone dispersed, Fan Li said to Zimei: "I want to see Xi Shi, and then see Zheng Dan." Zimei said: "Okay, I'll arrange it." ”
